PC 12 incident – Coober Pedy.

Surprised our resident 'prang spotters' missed this one, Serious incident, 23 Sept 2014 - AO-2014-156.

The why's and wherefores, from an operational standpoint should provide some interesting lessons. From the scant information provided you could call it a CFIT and the pathway to a CFIT event is always worth examining, in detail.

Anyone got any additional information?, the 'actual' wind, visibility and weather at the time would be a good place to start.

BoM - YCBP : Nil wind data for 23/09/2014.

September - Highest max wind gust - : WSW 78 KpH (42 knots): 9 AM S 50 KpH (27 knots) : 1500 WSW 56 KpH (30 knots).

Clever, Very Droll boys............
